I tell you what, Pep, I nearly pissed my Depends when she called last night at midnight. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Edited to add: You'll probably change your sig line now and I'll end up just looking vulgar and potty mouthed. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Thank you. I think this is such a blessing because of what has happened to us as a family (because of me).

What makes me so happy is that the cycle of my intact family is moving forward just like it's meant to. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Of course, being me, I feel the need to say to WS's they need to consider that these highlights of family life will be lost to them forever if they continue down the path they are on. BS's it wouldn't hurt to point that out to them.

Jen,

Congratulations to your daughter. And I am sure glad I'm not your age. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/pfft.gif" alt="" /> My kids haven't gotten to the "engaged" part yet. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" />

God Bless,

Yeah, a few years and you'll be OLD enough to have engaged kids. LOL I kill me. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

You know what, it's my birthday this month. I'll be 53. I asked some of the young tutors the other night how old they thought I was. It was VERY flattering. The ages given were 39, 40, early 40's. When I said I had a son of 29, they said oh, late 40's then.

LOL

Congrats!!! I am thrilled for you and for your DD and her STB!!!! How exciting!!! Do you get to help plan the wedding?

It's weird having "kids" that are growing up, graduating, getting married, and having babies...huh? I wouldn't know. I'm YOUNG!!! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/pfft.gif" alt="" />

Your true and faithful friend,

Lovely news Jen. I know you're very fond of your STBSIL but can you imagine what it must be like if you don't like them???

He sounds a really great guy - loving and adventurous. I wish them a lifetime of happiness. Your daughter must be over the moon. TT

LOL DIG, mine's the 18th too.

TT, I don't what you'd do if you didn't like the STBSIL.

There's quite a long story involved in me and my STBSIL. I met him long before my DD did because I worked with him. At the time he must have been about 21 and had the smartest mouth of any young man I'd ever met. I said to him once "I'm surprised noone has ever hit you in that smart mouth of yours."

My DD joined my company part time when she was at university, then got offered a job after she graduated. He was instantly smitten but it took her longer. LOL. One day she came into work and he'd put his photo up as her desktop picture.

We laugh about it all now.
